New Pig Iron troopers and Head sprues on the way.
« on: June 20, 2012, 09:29:02 PM »
Had a little wander around the Pig Iron Blog today.... very pleased with what I found! :D



Going straight on my Noble Team Spartan Leader I can tell you! ;)







WANT!!!! NEED!!!! MUST HAVE!!!!

Also some nicer rubble sprues, this time with added wrecked machine parts, perfect for basing and scenery. This has to be one of the most innovative ideas that we've seen for a few years now, rather than cut up pieces of sprue to make rubble:




The sprue is the rubble. How cool is that.

I don't have much use for them (at least until I start a new project...) but they look great.  I really like the Masked heads.

I am thinking that those helmeted heads on top would look great on my Defiance Games marines, and the hooded heads would be just the ticket for converting some near-future/modern insurgents that I have been planning to do. I hope these come out sooner than later!

Those near future heads are very nice.  I really like where Pig Iron is going with their line of figs.

That's a REALLY good idea. The heads are the only things I don't care for on the DG Marines.

Had much the same idea!

I'd like to see a set of heads with the near future style helmets shown here but with face wraps and goggles.

Some nice additions there, and I especially like the idea of the rubble sprue.
